  1. Which OSHA standard specifically governs powered industrial trucks (forklifts) in general industry?

    Answer: 29 CFR 1910.178

    29 CFR 1910.178 is the OSHA standard for Powered Industrial Trucks, covering design, maintenance, training, and safe operation requirements.

  2. How often must forklift operators be formally re-evaluated under OSHA requirements?

    Answer: At least every 3 years

    OSHA 1910.178(l) requires forklift operator re-evaluation at least every three years, or sooner if unsafe operation is observed or an accident occurs.

  3. A floor-level loading dock has no edge protection. Which fall-prevention measure is most appropriate?

    Answer: Install dock plates with wheel chocks and safety chains

    Dock plates, wheel chocks, and vehicle restraint chains physically prevent falls and trailer creep, addressing the hazard with engineering controls rather than warnings alone.

  4. What is the first step a worker should take after discovering a chemical spill in the warehouse?

    Answer: Notify a supervisor and evacuate the area if necessary

    Alerting a supervisor and evacuating if needed ensures worker safety first; trained spill responders and the correct SDS guidance can then be applied.

  5. Which of the following is an example of an administrative control for reducing repetitive motion injuries?

    Answer: Rotating workers between different tasks throughout the shift

    Job rotation is an administrative control that limits the duration of exposure to repetitive motions by spreading tasks among multiple workers.

  6. What information must be displayed on hazardous material labels under the GHS system? (Select the COMPLETE set)

    Answer: Pictograms, signal word, hazard statements, precautionary statements, and supplier info

    GHS-compliant labels must include pictogram(s), a signal word (Danger/Warning), hazard statements, precautionary statements, product identifier, and supplier information.

  7. Which signal word on a GHS label indicates the MORE SEVERE hazard level?

    Answer: Danger

    GHS uses 'Danger' for severe hazard categories and 'Warning' for less severe ones; 'Caution' and 'Notice' are not part of the GHS signal word system.
